    Mike White giving him a few tricky financial questions, Acun's manner changed a little.

    Apparently it started from a discarded cig outside that caught the canopy. Not sure if that’s true but I’ve heard the same from two different people

    I hear that my mate Nozzer was in there Friday night..I immediately thought of a trapped turd in the Gents, letting off fumes, then a spark, followed by a boom. It looked as if it started near to the bogs, but your explanation sounds more plausible. However, someone said it started at about 4am....No doubt plod (if they can be arsed) will get on the case.

    Edit...Started at around 2.15am...out by 5.45am

    Acun
    We are playing chess with the financial limits (FFP).

    The Championship has improved my maths.

    The club owes money but only to me.

    I am surprised it is being reported that the club is in debt. The club is owned by Acun and owes money to Acun.

    If I sell the club, I could not sell it for what I've spent. I would lose some money.

    We are spending from my pocket and we are on our limits.

    If you ask me, we have £60m worth of future talent in our squad.

    To the fans, don't be under stress.

    For what it's worth. He's got the look of Christian Bale. In fact I'm convinced it is Christian Bale.

    So the new manager sacked if we dont finish top 10

    And top 10 is usually a few points from playoffs

    So what acun really means is

    Playoffs is the target

    He'll always make his players happy by not pushing for extra money if they want to leave.

    But realistically, an extra twenty quid on each adult membership will raise less than 500k. I understand not wanting to haggle for players who want to leave, and risk upsetting them if the other team pulls out, but a bit of haggling could easily equal a few hundred grand on a few transfers. Realistically, how much might we have got for Pedro?

    I think its a more long term view in that players with great potential will choose as a stepping stone if we have a reputation of facilitating onward growth for them.
